SPED 310 Week 4

This week was full of a lot of learning. Things we did included our stuttering simulation and also our first test. It was interesting to see how our group taught teach other, but first I will start with Monday. Monday specifically impacted my learning and helped my find more application in what we are learning.
In our book we read about case studies, then in  class we started talking about them and how they have gone to court and helped special education progress. The one I learned the most from was the Daniel R. R. Case where it was decided that the school had done all they could do with their resources and general education setting was not a good place for him. The School won this case, and what I learned from it was we need to use the continuum of Least Restrictive Environment to make sure the students are in a place where they themselves will benefit most. I was able to make a connection of LRE to the case which helped me remember both for the next test and will help me apply this in my classroom.
When we spent time in class going over the cases in our groups, and I just have to say my group is awesome! We help each other and teach each other the cases when we don't know them, and it not only helps me remember them better but we are learning these long term. This week my group was my biggest and most helpful resource. By us teaching each other I was able to find the application for my future students.
